Bit of an after thread but since I no longer frequent Southern forum(s) until this came along I thought I would take the opportunity to thank you guys from down there on behalf of GTINI for taking the spin up to attend Castlewellan on Saturday past. Was a successful show with a turnout that filled the show area completely by 12pm and the weather could not have been more kind to us! Charity total will be announced shortly :)

Details of our one off special event in September will be released shortly...

Maybe someone could post some pics?

Was a great day out Gethin and a credit to you all as always.

We were given a raffle ticket on the way in but the only draw i witnessed was a raffle calling out groups of five tickets as winners i.e the single ticket was no good to us,did i miss another draw ?

I sadly missed the show this year but it's certainly one that's well worth the trip. Quality organising and quality cars.

Looking forward to what ever you have planned in September.

Great show as always Gethin! Whats this about another show in September? Always love the shows you guys put on. Driving up the north in a cramped caddy is an absolute * but worth the trip up. Thanks guys.

Thanks guys!

Can't say too much about the September show in case I spoil the big reveal but it's going to be a special show in a special part of Belfast and will be quite different to our usual shows.... :)

Thanks Shane! No, the tickets you were given on the way in was counted in the main raffle. If your ticket number was one of the numbers between what was on the called out strip it qualified as a winning ticket. We maybe should have been more clear on that, sorry!

Is there really enough room for a 1/4 mile sprint area down the driveway of Stormont? :D

Castlewellan, Dubshed - both great shows. Pulling of a trio of events would be some achievement so best of luck with that.

Any room for a little stand just for AutoStadt? 8-)

Ha, thanks Mike! Of course there will be room for an Autostadt stand :) No quarter mile I'm afraid, as much as I personally would like one!

Hopefully we will be launching the show within the next couple of weeks, date is not finalised yet but is scheduled for third or fourth weekend in September. It will be a VERY nice way to round off the Irish show season :D

Missed it this year, I was busy avoiding being stabbed in the phoenix park. Always a good show though.
